Cannot access program database on an external server

PHPRunner General questions

Unfortunately, I can't use PHPRunner version 11. I've put the program database on an external server so I can access it from anywhere. Unfortunately, the server doesn't allow external access. Is there a similar feature in version 11 as in version 10, where I can upload the phprunner.php file so that the program database can also be accessed via localhost?

Thanks for help.

Using a database on external server is a bad idea. PHPRunner heavily communicates with project database and using a remote database simply won't work.

It looks like what you looking for MultiDeveloper edition of PHPRunner.

Thanks for the reply. I don't actually need MultiDeveloper Edfition. I just want to be able to work on one project on my PC, but also on my laptop when I'm on the go. This is easy to do with version 10.9 by synchronizing the project folder between my PC and laptop. How can I do this with version 11? Is there a way?

Pixel, I do the same as you, I have a desktop and work on projects using that and I also want to work on the laptop with the same project but not at the same time.

Using V10 I just used to sync the project files and the DB files(MyIsam only) with the server in the house,

I've not found a ideal solution for V11 yet, I did think about syncing the Postgres DB, I'm just not sure which DB to select yet, there seems to be a couple, I was going to leave that until V11 is a little more mature, I guess I could just export the project each time but it's not an ideal solution.

If you find a solution then I'm interested as well.
